How to choose the right one
- Write for the host. If the host stumbles over it, the joke dies. Read your shortlist out loud before you commit.
- Puns age, confidence does not. A name that claims you are geniuses stays funny whether you win or finish last.
- Keep a spare. Venues sometimes have two teams with the same joke. Star two favorites so you can switch without a debate.

Frequently asked questions
How long should a trivia team name be?
Three to six words is the sweet spot: long enough for a real pun, short enough for the host to read at speed.
Can we change our name every week?
Many teams do, usually riffing on the week news. A permanent name builds recognition with the host and rival teams, so the strongest move is a fixed name with an occasional one-week special.
What if another team has our name?
Add your table number, your street, or the word “Original” in front of it. Trivia tradition says the second team to arrive changes, so arrive early.
